| Abstract | In this article, the author outlines how and why he has established a self-assessment system for class participation scores in an English-speaking skills course at a Japanese university. He explains how his experience with one particular student, who personally admitted to having abused the system, led him to realize that elements from Yin and Yang have been playing an important part in his beliefs as a teacher, helping him to improve his self-assessment system and further reflect on his practice. Narrative inquiry is employed as both the primary means of collecting and analysing data, although as this is Exploratory Practice inquiry the author triangulates his narrative using other sources arising from pedagogically generated materials and his own teaching journal. Through this inquiry the author came to realize that sometimes bad experiences and overcoming difficulties can actually become good learning experiences if the right attitude is employed. In trying to deal with one particularly problematic student he was able to identify problems with the design of his assessment system, and thus makes changes which improved the course for all participants. He believes he was more reflexive and alert to these improvements because of the Exploratory Practice inquiry that he was conducting. The author was also able to identify how he placed special emphasis on issues of trust and taking responsibility, which he now recognizes as having been central justifications for designing the self-assessment system in the first place.
